Sweet metaphor
My student Elris is a(n American) football player. He struggles with words, but he's actually a sentient being. And he's even understood that in videogame studies, we cannot study rules and stories independently from each other.
I'm so proud of him. The comparison is so sweet.
So the ludology vs narratology debate should enter a new stage of contention: Who is the butter and who is the jelly?
The ludology and narratology view is the like peanut butter and jelly. It just would not be as good without the other.

If ludology is about "the bones" of games, and narratology is about "the dressing" ... I guess peanut butter has more nutritional value (?), so ludology=peanut butter.

Peanut butter isn't a meal. :)
